ARE YOU PRAYING WHOLEHEARTEDLY?

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ.  I’m grateful for your unconditional love and continued favor.

Father, as many have awakened to witness another day that was not promised, despite their pain and agony, they push forward knowing that all will dissipate at the right time.  They know patience is a virtue, and such allows them to “cultivate inner strength and sound judgment, and help them to make clear-headed decisions in a world that can feel rushed and demanding”.

Father, help all to realize that you have all control, and when they pray, you hear their cry, requests, thankfulness; however; you know and hear their thoughts as well.  Therefore,  help all to meditate and clear their mind of doubt, worry, and/or setbacks and difficulties as they pray, as well as move forward in life.

“You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:13

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ.  I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have been blessed to witness another beautiful morning, they smile because you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, have given them another opportunity to make a difference by changing their ways, resulting in others clinging to, and depending upon you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things, situations, sicknesses, troubles, sadness, challenges heartaches, pain, depression, despair, and the multitudes of various trials that they have endured and continue to endure. 

Father, help all to understand that although they may wear many faces in front of others, you are aware of what they are truly experiencing, and await their heartfelt prayers to lead to a place of destitute, repentance, and true love for you, through your Son, Jesus Christ.

“Let go and let God have his way in your life, and he will bless you exceedingly, abundantly, above all that you can ask or think.” Ephesians 3:20

REMAIN STEADFAST IN PRAYER AND SUPPLICATION 

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they praise you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for the gift of life. Despite their ups and downs, they push through their adversities and challenges, knowing that as long as they have you in their lives, no weapons, schemes, plots, or ploys that are planned against them will prosper. 

Instead of dwelling on the actions or inactions of others, they focus on doing what you have purposed for them. 
Instead of allowing others to control their thoughts, actions, words, or spirituality, they pray a prayer of thankfulness to you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for keeping their mind stayed upon you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, through it all.

Father, help all to realize that Satan will try all attempts to cause division and discourse in their lives when they are aiming to live righteously; therefore, remain strong in faith and steadfast in prayer and supplication during their good and bad experiences.

“The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

Philippians 4:5-7

WORKING OUT FOR THE GOOD

Father, I am giving you all praise for another blessed day in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have made it through this blessed day, they lift up your holy name through your Son, Jesus Christ, for continued guidance. They know that if it had not been for you, they would not be able to smile. Therefore, instead of dwelling on what did not come to fruition, they pray a prayer of thankfulness for allowing them to make it through it all.

In addition, they praise you for your one-of-a-kind, never-ending love. They glorify you for always coming to their rescue. Despite their continued trials, you allow them to push through, ultimately resulting in increased faith, harmony, happiness, and peace beyond understanding.

They can rest assured in you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, that whatever you have purposed for them will always come to fruition.

They now realize that their experiences in life were strategically designed to help them grow more spiritually and mentally, depending solely on you through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

Father, help all to realize that when they truly let go and let God, they will recognize your abundant love and never-ending mercy. Help them to know that despite what they have endured or will endure, you have all power, and all things will continue to work out for the good of those who love you.

DEPENDENCE ON GOD 

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they first give praise to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for the gift of life. 

They know that nothing in life that is worth having comes easy. They understand that without trials and/or tribulations, there is no personal growth, and their dependency is on themselves instead of you, through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

Father, help all to realize that life is always better with you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help them to understand that the issues that they experience daily help them to obtain greater spiritual growth and a dependency upon you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

“I depend on God alone; I put my hope in him. He alone protects and saves me; he is my defender, and I shall never be defeated. My salvation and honor depend on God; he is my strong protector; he is my shelter. Trust in God at all times, my people. Tell him all your troubles, for he is our refuge.” Psalm 62:5-8

Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.” Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff comfort me.

GOD KNOWS ALL THINGS

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for a second chance.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your unconditional love, peace through their storms, as well as their happiness despite the darkness that tries to dim their light.

Father, thank you for being ever-present in the lives of all who continue to love despite the non-reciprocation of such love from those who oftentimes cause the most havoc in their lives.

Help all to understand that you know the heart of everyone; therefore, always confess their sins, repent, and return to you through their words as well as their deeds.

Father, help all who choose to focus on pleasing those who are conformed to this world. Help all who know to do that which is right, but choose to do whatever it takes to please their flesh. Moreover, help those who know of you but have not formed a relationship with you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

“The LORD sees everything you do, and he watches where you go. An evil man will be caught in his wicked ways; the ropes of his sins will tie him up. He will die because he does not control himself, and he will be held captive by his foolishness.”
Proverbs 5:21-23

WILL YOU CONTINUE TO TRUST GOD?

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they fall to their knees in a prayer of thankfulness. They know that today was not promised; yet, they have life. Despite their shortcomings, sin, and continuously falling short of your glory, you thought that they were worthy. Therefore, they pray for forgiveness and for you to continue to direct their steps toward total peace, happiness, joy, and love.

Father, help all to understand that there will be days when their burdens become heavy and/or unbearable. There will be days when they no longer believe that they are worthy. However, help all to understand that such thoughts are not of you, your Son, Jesus Christ, or your Holy Spirit. Father, help all to understand that the devil comes to kill, steal, and destroy. Therefore, maintain a pure relationship with you through their good as well as not-so-good days.

“Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life.” Psalm 143:8
